Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang sends Premier League warning after completing Chelsea transfer

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has sent a warning to Premier League clubs after completing a transfer from Barcelona to Chelsea, just eight months after he joined the Spanish side from the Blues' London rivals Arsenal.

The 33-year-old has signed a two-year contract and becomes the sixth signing of the summer for the Blues' senior team. Todd Boehly agreed a fee worth around £12million for the forward, with Marcos Alonso set be announced by the La Liga giants on a free transfer on Friday morning.

Aubameyang arrived in London in the final hours of deadline day to undergo a medical and sign his contract, which is understood to be a two-year deal with a further 12 months triggered by certain conditions.

And the striker has sent a warning to English clubs that he has "unfinished business" to take care of in the Premier League, as he reunited with former Borussia Dortmund manager Thomas Tuchel.

"I’m really happy," Aubameyang told the club's official website. "It’s an honour to be part of this team and I can’t wait to start.

"I have some unfinished business with the Premier League so it’s good to be back and really exciting."

Aubameyang will be looking to get back to his best in a forward line that has been bolstered this summer by the arrival of Raheem Sterling from Manchester City, but has also seen the departures of Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner on a loan deal and permanent move respectively.

Tuchel will be counting on the striker to revitalise the Chelsea attack, with Sterling the only attacker to score so far this season - though the forward line has been ailing for some time in truth, as seen by the departures of Lukaku and Werner, who failed to hit the heights expected of them following big money moves over the last two years.
